Q: Web site migration seems like a lot of work. How long can it take?
A: While we cannot give you a precise time frame, because there are many factors, among them the physical size of the web files and databases, the physical location of the current host’s server, the complexity of your website and the current workload of our Website Migration Department, etc., we’ll give our very best to migrate your site within 48 hours, and in some cases – within 24 hours (when the content is not large).

Q: My personal privacy concerns me. What details do you require?
A: Yup. We will require the name of the web site that you’d like us to migrate. We’ll also need a means to access your current web hosting account so that we can get the content pertaining to your web site.

Q: I give you access to sensitive info. How can I be sure that you won’t misuse it?
A: Our Privacy Policy is an inseparable part of the contract that we’ll have with you as a customer. We are focused on safeguarding the safety of the personal information gathered from the clients. To accomplish that, we employ technical security measures so as to avoid the loss, the misuse, the modification or the unlawful disclosure of the personal info under our control.

Q: Will there be any downtime for my site?
A: While we transfer your web site, it will be available both in your hosting account with us and in your account with your previous hosting provider. As soon as the transfer is finished, we’ll ensure that everything is working correctly and that the integrity of your data is not compromised prior to telling you that the transfer is done. Then we’ll explain to you how to move the domain name to your hosting account with us and how to modify the DNS resource records.

Q: Will my present web hosting provider know that I’m leaving them?
A: Nope. We’ll never contact your web hosting provider about anything. They will not be aware of the web site transfer either.
